    Which loss pissed you off more?

    9ers game was much, much worse. We got WHOOPED in each and every possible way. We had a full compliment of players. That was a divison opponent that we had already lost to, MNF, amd a game that could have wrapped up our 2nd straight NFCW title and punched our ticket to the playoffs. (Remember...

    Hightower loses starting job or Whis loses credibility

    I think one of the only good things that will come out of this game will be the scaling back of Hightower's touches in this offense. Hightower is a big effort/heart guy but he is a little short on talent compared to the other playmakers we have on offensive side of the ball. Time to scale back...

    Bridges Quote (LOL)

    I saw an interview with Bridges where he said that Allen got so frustrated at one point he actually had to play the "how many pro bowls have you been to" card. So glad we didn't have to see Allen's weak calf-roping celebration 1 single time. And I like Allen too he seems like a pretty cool guy...

    Travis Laboy Suspended for Four Games

    It doesn't state why he was suspended but I can probably take a wild guess. I always had my suspicions about the guy. Tons of nagging little injuries, the fact that he worked out with pro wrestlers, and that ginormous dome of his... just sayin...

    Say Man.. Who Here..

    Been down since '91 when I permanately moved here from Des Moines IA when I was about 12 years old. A family friend took me to my 1st ever NFL game at SDS that year against the Falcons. I rememeber I could hardly sleep the night before I was so damn excited. This was smack dab in the middle...

    Beanie HAS arrived

    I can't remember the last time I genuinely had the feeling a Cardinal RB was capable of breaking off a huge run every time he touches the ball. Finally!

    Pacquiao-Cotto

    Shoot I wish I was there 82. Unfortuantely I'm here in the dreary valley and gonna have the fellas over to watch. HD is as close as I'll get to Vegas for this one :D I can't argue with one thing you said man. Watching Cotto handle the speed of Mosley and Judah, and then the size and strength...

    Pacquiao-Cotto

    I also had the pleasure of meeting Freddie last year at the Pacquiao-De la Hoya fight and I can also attest that he is very, very cool and down to earth. He talks a lot of crap during the build up of a fight for a couple reasons: 1) To try to sell it a bit since his fighter never says anything...

    Thursday Night Football Game Thread: Chicago @ San Francisco

    Cutler is just flat out AWFUL. He's terrible. He may have all the physical tools but he's a mental shorty. Everything about his attitude and demeanor screams loser. So glad he's a Bear!

    Pacquiao-Cotto

    Mega fight this weekend fellas, who ya got? I'm rooting Pac but I'm super torn on who I actually think will win. I keep going back and forth. This is such a tough one to pick. Have Manny and Roach finally gone too far up the ladder? Is Cotto on a slippery-slope decline? Will Pac be able to...

    Post-Giants game fines levied by NFL

    Yea this is definitely no longer the NFL I grew up watching. That's why I love a guy like Wilson so much. He just flat out doesn't care about penalties and/or fines. Sucks when they happen, but he isn't going to change the way he plays and I respect that. He could have played in any era.

    Is Whiz Superstitious About Uniforms for Sunday

    I'm down with the all reds. I hate that the Texans bit us on those though!! Remember back at SDS where we didn't even get to see the red jerseys at home until about mid Nov?

    Beanie Wells

    Even after only 6 games I think it's safe to say Beanie is the best RB we've had in the past decade. There is absolutely no reason he shouldn't be starting and getting the bulk of the carries from here on out.

    Mayweather vs. Marquez

    It's crazy isn't it? Actually if I'm not mistaken we were talking about this fight being a possibility about 4-5 years ago and saying back then how long past due it was. Now both guys are over 40 and it FINALLY looks like it's going to happen. Talk about a long time comin... I just don't see...

    Mayweather vs. Marquez

    Floyd is all about mega 'events' and paydays at this point. He wants the most money with the least amount of risk. As much as I love the PacMan he's too small and fights way too recklessly to have a chance against a defensive wizard like Mayweather. Manny jumps in a lot and even though his KO of...

    Hard to believe, but this secondary actually misses Rod Hood.

    I agree. I'll post more in detail in the FM-JMM thread...

    Hard to believe, but this secondary actually misses Rod Hood.

    I got you 82! It's really strange. Its almost like seeing my Cards in the SB and coming so close to winning it all even though we fell short just mellowed me the hell out as far as needing to voice my opinions (usually frustrations). BUT it's all coming back to me now! ;)

    Hard to believe, but this secondary actually misses Rod Hood.

    Yea philly. Breaston is awesome. Campbell seems to be coming along. And then there's uh... well... ummmm.... :D Whis has been good at cooking the meal but has left A LOT to be desired when it comes to getting the groceries. He is a 1st time HC though and is clearly still learning on the job.

    Hard to believe, but this secondary actually misses Rod Hood.

    The Cards have a history of signing average FA DBs that came from great defenses and were basically just looking to parlay a good SB performance into a big payday. Duane Starks, Dexter Jackson, now McFadden. When you really look at the FA signings we have had under Whis it's been pretty ugly.

    Haley vs Whis

    I think the right HC can be successful calling his own plays. In Whis' case however it has been proven that once he relinquished those duties to Haley the offense improved. The guys that have been brought up as far as head men calling their own plays are guys that had a decade + HC experience...

    Haley vs Whis

    Well I'm also looking at 2007 when I grade Whis as a HC and play caller so it's not just a 1 game window I'm basing my opinion on. Yes the offense struggled at times last year. In that 1st SF game last season we scored more points and racked up more yardage than we did yesterday and as you...

    Haley vs Whis

    Ok, like I said it definitely didn't seem that way to me. What I do know for certain is our scoring and yardage was better with Haley calling the plays than it has been with Whis doing so. As bad and out of sync as the offense has looked through the preseason and in the 1st regular season game...

    As often? Didn't seem that way to me.

    The fumble berry picked up

    Anyway you choose to look at it the bottom line is it was still a blown call. I thought the refs were taught NOT to blow the whistle and call plays dead on anything that is even remotely questionable. When Rolle's hand went up and then swiped down on the ball causing it to spin and flutter that...
